Alana & Mike – February 2011

Hi Warren and Katrina
Mother of Alana and now mother-in-law of Michael here – Waiheke Island, Feb 2011. Just to say thankyou for the lovely photographs.
I have seen many wedding photographs in my long life and I think yours are the best I have ever seen. Your use of light brings the photograps alive and really adds that extra element to the photographs. The formal photographs are excellent but the ‘informal’ ones are stunning. I detest those posed ‘Oh! they caught us out photographs.’ You can always tell when a photograph is staged from the tension in the expressions. I think you have an ability to anticipate and then record the events that most relatives would like captured for eternity and to make people look good/natural in the process.
Your unobtrusive, unassuming and friendly manner made it so easy for guests to be relaxed when being photographed and I think that shows in all our photographs. Well done and keep up the good work.
May I wish you both all the best for your wedding and I hope you have as good a day as we all had — to a man!!!! and woman. May I offer some advice. Stay relaxed, go with the flow and don’t panic if things go wrong. And drink plenty of champagne!!
All the best

OMG Warren and Katrina, it actually brought a tear to my eye as I am so amazed at how amazing they are. Thank you sooooooooooooo much I love them. THANK YOU
Nayden & May – October 2010
Thanks so much! We have had a quick browse through the photos and we agree that they look amazing!
We are super pleased with your images you have taken and would like to reiterate how wonderful you both were on the day! I am sure my friends and family will be just as impressed.
Both of you are very professional, courteous and accommodating . You make a terrific team. Something that we loved was the fact that you were both clearly very enthusiastic about photography, which I believe alawys shows in images.
Many of our married friends are blown away and jealous of the wedding photographer we had! We believe that going with Warren and Katrina was one of the best decisions we made for our wedding.
Dona & Corey – June 2010
He was organised, he had the right gear, and picked out several places which would make our photos great. A bit of comedian, he interacted and built rapport with us, and made us feel great about the photos. Katrina his partner in crime was popping up like a ninja taking dynamic shots which came out awesome!
We are very pleased with the photos. It was at a top quality, they gave us some time to decide which photos we wanted to print. If you want photographer who can capture life, and all of the emotions that go with it, then you’re looking in the right place.

Hi there,
So I was flying back from Auckland, where my mum lives, to Sydney today – and noticed the beautiful photos on display in the international departures lounge.
Then I see an ad for you guys on Facebook, and clicked to check it out. Here you are the young NZ photographer of the year! Seems like synchronicity. That and your work is beautiful, cheeky, emotive and creative.
I see you like travelling for weddings, and that it’s Warren’s birthday in June (great month). I’m getting married in Samoa on June 11, 2011 and just wondering what it might cost to get one or both of you there (also love the dual qualification in makeup!)?
We don’t have a huge budget, but I think I could get a bit of extra help from the parents (hopeful smile), so I hope to hear from you soon.
Thanks so much,
Lily
Hi Lilian,
Thanks for your message, and great to hear you’ve seen Katrina’s work displayed prominently at Auckland Airport.
We will email you later today to discuss further. Very exciting that you’re getting married in Samoa! Love the website too.
Regards,
Warren & Katrina
Hi Warren and Katrina
Mother of Alana and now mother-in-law of Michael here (trying to send you a testimonial as I can’t work out your address to send you a written letter) – Waiheke Island, Feb 2011. Just to say thankyou for the lovely photographs. I am not a natural computer user so it took me a little while to work out how to navigate your web-site – hence the delay in getting back to you.

Hi Katrina & Warren, I am looking through your website (not had much time to take the hour needed since meeting you last summer for Alana & Mike’s wedding as Waiheke has become such a hugely popular location for ceremonies that I rarely get off the island for other NZ locations like I used to) as I am often asked for referrals and although I have long since added your name to my file I am enjoying viewing your wonderful work once more.
I officated at a wedding only last night where the photographer was bordering on useless and the couple both commented that they were not looking forward to viewing his results.
They were sorry they had not taken my advice and considered the options I gave them, especilly after they checked your website a few days before the wedding.
I hope to have the opportunity to see a few photos from your own wedding and I am sure you will only have chosen the best person other than yourselves to record your wonderful day.
I will be in contact soon as we will need to begin work with your ceremony shortly.
Enjoy the warmer weather, kind regards to you both, Irene
